That wouldn't make me happy... I hate dust so why would I want powder in my home?  :P

Ted, here's the chick selling that powder. I think she's been partaking of it, herself.  ;)



Speaking of rare- and she does say this item is rare-  it's called Witch's Butter. A fungus used to ward off hexes and curses. jawdrop

It's from the last harvest of the season:

Wonder if it did that to her hair?
Wouldn't work on my clean-shaven noggin though....

That's a quite interesting historical document over there Paul. You should be given the number one UK poster history caretaker medal.  thumbup

I picked this up last summer from a small advertised auction in the midwest. It's an unfolded US HS for the Merle Oberon film, Beloved Enemy (1936). When trying to find comparables on this style, the only thing I found was that HA had auctioned it 3 times. Thing is, all three auctions were for this same, identical copy (the same water staining & minor paper loss, in the lower right corner, was the identifier).

I've not seen it on ebay and emovie has also not sold one before. So is is more rare? Maybe. It isn't something I can retire on. But I've always had a soft spot for Merle Oberon, ever since seeing her in Wuthering Heights (1939), in a high school English class, when we screened the film, after reading the book.  ;)

Gorgeous portrait of Merle, Jeff. I think it should be more valuable :)

Thanks, Brian... I've seen the OS and some other items for this.. (glass slides, LC, stills) and I think this HS works quite well. She looks gorgeous and is SO present in the HS format (or at least I think so).  :)

Dont know if this is maybe just a bit more uncommon? (rather than rare), but I haven't come across another one.

Paul, have you seen a number of these float by? Being from 1987, one would think there would be a good number about?

UK quad for Near Dark

That Near Dark Quad looks like the one that was on ebay not to long ago that went for somewhere in the $30 range. Is that the one Jeff and if so are you the one that ended up winning the auction??

Hey Randy-

I did get my copy off the bay, but it was back in 2013.

So another popped up more recently?

I got my copy from a seller in the UK.

IMHO, the quad art blows the US OS away. On the US paper, it looks like the actor was hit with a face full of mud.   Doh.gif

I agree the US OS is garbage. Love the artwork on the Quad. Been wanting one for awhile now and it keeps eluding me. One day I shall have one. There are still a few others I am after as well and every time they pop up for auction I forget about them or have to work.
